This is a glass gem corn cob
And a mielie cob
If they are planted next to each other, cross pollination happens.

This morning driving to work, drivers window open on a crack to let the vapor out, a bee hit the T pillar and unbeknownst to me, settled on my shirt collar. Next intersection, look left, look right, WTF!!!. Got me in the neck right next to my windpipe. Pulled over, in peak traffic, to get to grips with what hit me.
I am not allergic to bee stings but the location had me worried. And there was considerable localized swelling, so after an hour at work I took off the the chemist, which referred me to the doctors next door.
One Cortisone injection and antihistamine tablet later I was back at work. Zombie'd out of my skull, still am. Will teach me to have breakfast before 10 in the morning.
Fortunately I was wearing clean underwear.
Regards

Not to be nasty, But rather you than me, i would have needed clean underwear for starters,
and maybe should look at having my Epipen or andrenaline ampoules replaced, ER24battle in traffic due to yellow lane hogs and I have about 10 minutes for them to start drip for my trip.
Brother, rather be ready than sorry. Stock up on emergency treatment stuff and replace regularly. "Could have", "should have" and "would have" do not change the present.Not to be nasty, But rather you than me, i would have needed clean underwear for starters,

Agree, I checked and I am good until 20 March, so order will be going in nhext week.
Ouch! Happened to me a couple years back, right down my shirt, it stung my back. I was living in Gardenvale AH back then and was driving to meet up with my parents. My mother had to take the stinger out - can't remember it being that bad because it burned like hell. Just surprised that I didn't crash the car lol

My problem came about after being attacked by a swarm of bees, they took over 90 stingers just out of my face, and about the same out of my neck. That excludes my body as I was mowing the lawn without a shirt. Took me 2 min to doctor as it was a block away and couldn't talk when I got there, lucky for me her Gardner was attacked the previous weekend so she knew immediately. Drip, cortisone, epenephedrine and 2 days in hospital. They reacon that if I was under 16 and under 80 kg I would not have made the dr's rooms even. Paid off to be 6'1 and a 100 kgs that time!

Nooooo you're pulling our legs, surely? How could a mielie possibly look like the top pic? That pic looks like the result of a beading workshop!
Noooooo I'm serious! I found two mixed colour mielies when they were supposed to be white.
Glass gem corn has been preserved for many generations by the American Indians. A friend in Cape town has grown them and it's not a lie.

Much like "heirloom" mielies, but this is prettier.
@RainstormZA @Caramia This is quite fascinating. Are those multi-coloured mealies edible? I've certainly never seen them anywhere!
I ate a few - very much like the corn you buy in shops. They are smaller though.

Do they make you crap rainbows?
Saturday, just before midday... So about 31 hours. Not in front of he PC to cyber stalk in more detail, but seems like a reasonable offline break.
